"The offensive line has been one of the weaker points of the Patriots' roster over the last few years, and while plenty of upgrades were made this past offseason, clearly not enough was done to ensure their franchise quarterback was set up for success in a game as big as the Super Bowl. Of course, much of that is due to their inexperience, and that showed up throughout the playoffs and again in the Super Bowl."
"They certainly made the right moves from center across to right tackle, but now they'll have some decisions to make going into this offseason, with some speculating that Campbell could be moved to left guard despite being a No. 4 overall draft pick. We'll have to see what happens, but something needs to be done if they want the offense to have a real chance next year, especially with Drake Maye"
The Patriots' offense struggled for nearly the entire Super Bowl LX, with the offensive line causing avoidable turnovers and lost points. The left side, staffed by rookies Will Campbell and Jared Wilson, performed especially poorly on the game's biggest stage. Coach Mike Vrabel publicly said no one played well enough to win. The offensive line has been a recurring weakness despite offseason upgrades across center to right tackle. Inexperience manifested during the playoffs and the Super Bowl. The team faces offseason decisions, including possibly moving Campbell to left guard, to protect quarterback Drake Maye and give the offense a realistic chance next season.
